Thanks to the suggestion of John (to use an RCX as a counterweight), I realised this was absolutely the way to go on this Topple Tower model idea I had.

That is great. It is clear that you have a love of building. I'm sure you help Mark and I am certain he knows your heart is in it. Congrats, I know you'll be a fine co-curator. Plus, as a sentimental gesture (from me in a manner of speaking). Your (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.space)

(...) No, Orion is correct -- for LDraw. By definition, LDraw parts have no gap. 1-stud-wide bricks are 20 LDU - exactly. We *really* don't want to get into a game of trying model real-world dimensions in great detail. That it, unless someone can (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Yeah, the center of gravity of the whole assembly is ABOVE the beam, so the whole thing is by definition unstable. Weird. I didn't quite get it either. Are we missing something?

(...) I beg to differ. The width of a 1x1 brick is not the same as the spacing between two stud centres. Bricks have a small gap between them, whereas studs are very accurately placed on any brick with more than 1 stud. The LDU unit should be (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Well, yes, and no. The bricks are not nearly as precise as the molds, but the dimensional tolerances for parts must certainly be a lot tighter than the difference between 1/64" and 0.4 mm. That difference is almost a full percent, so there is (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
